Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller
The Ethernet controller is integrated on the system board.
It provides an interface for connecting to a 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1-Gbps network and provides full-duplex
(FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on the network.
If the Ethernet ports in the server support auto-negotiation, the controller detects the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T) and duplex mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the network and automatically operates at that rate and mode
You do not have to set any jumpers or configure the controller.
However, you must install a device driver to enable the operating system to address the controller.
For device drivers and information about configuring the Ethernet controller, see the
Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet Software CD
that comes with your server.
For updated information about configuring the controller, go to http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/.
